Neighboring Governors To be Campus Visitors Harold E. Hughes and Frank B. Morrison, governors of Iowa and Nebraska, will be on camp— us with their wives next Thurs- day and Friday as “politicians- iii-residence.” Sponsored by the Program in Practical Political Education under the direction of Dr. C. Edwin Gilmour, the governors have been scheduled to attend HUGHES MORRISON classes, live in residence halls and participate in extracurri- cular student activities during their. stay. “The governors will make no formal remarks during their stay,” said Gilmour. “We feel that the extensive student con- tacts constitute the real work of (he politicianeineresidence program, with more lasting ef- fect than a mere formal ad- dress." Both governors will attend the seminar in American Stud- les (Urbanism) and the Politi- cal Process class. Hughes will attend a European History lec- ture; and Morrison, a class on Race Relations. The wives, meanwhile, will attend fine arts classes. While on campus Hughes will stay in Langan Hall, Morrison in West Norris Hall, Mrs. Hughes in Haines Hall,.and Mrs. Morrison in Main Hall.

I954 ‘A Psychological Study of Two Thiigs' Provides Project for Hicks, Brooks “Through inane conversation the play exposes the basic fears of the characters," stated Bill Hicks. director of “The Dumb Waiter,” to be presented by Hicks and co-actor Steve Brooks as an independent theater project on March 1 and 2 in Roberts Theater at 8 pm. Although neither Hicks or Brooks is majoring’ in the the- ater, they classify themselves as “extracurricular drama mu- jors.” Both have acted in prew ious Grinnell performances. A psychological study or two thugs in the ‘basement of a warehouse waiting for their kill. the play projects the pria vate, terrors and personal farces of daily life. “If you question life, life does away widi you,” stated director Hicks. “This is the theme of the play. Asked why he picked this particular work. Hicks said, "I did it last year‘in Acting and Directing. The play is in- l tense for its length. It's differ- ent because you never know what’s going on until it's over." Hicks, who is also designing the scenery, described the set. “Previously the play has been done with a realistic back- ground, but we’re trying a dii'e ierent approach. Instead of du— plicating a room, just the sug- gestion or a room will be given. This is the idea of a fragment ed set." “One of the main problems," according to the pair, ”is time ing. We have been practicing since the middle of November and the play can very easily get stale. We have to time our» selves so we will reach the peak of our performance on opening night," When asked about plans for ru t u r a dramatic activities, Hicks stated, ”I would like to get people interested in a com- edy but this current project is enough to keep me busy for a while."
